Section 3 - Health Hazard Data
HEALTH EFFECTS - (Acute and Chronic)
Ingestion Because of the nature of the product, ingestion is unlikely.
Inhalation FATAL OR HARMFUL IF INHALED Overexposure can cause Central Nervous System
(CNS) depression with anaesthetic effects such as dizziness, headache, confusion,
incoordination, and loss of consciousness. Higher exposures to vapors may cause
temporary alteration of the heart's electrical activity, with irregular pulse, palpitations, or
inadequate circulation; or fatality from gross overexposure.

Eye Can cause irritation. NOTE: Direct contact with spray can result in frostbite.
Skin Can cause irritation, defatting, dermatitis. NOTE: Direct contact with spray can result in
frostbite.
PRIMARY ROUTES OF ENTRY Inhalation, Skin
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE
Exposure may aggravate diseases of the central nervous system, heart rhythm or other cardiovascular
diseases, or pulmonary diseases. If a person has one or more of these problems, consult medical
personnel to determine what steps should be taken.
EMERGENCY FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Eye Contact Flush thoroughly with water, consult a physician.
Skin Contact Do not apply directly to skin! If accidentally discharged onto skin, wash with soap and
warm water. Launder contaminated clothes before re-use. Treat for frostbite if directly
contacted with spray.
Inhalation Remove to fresh air. Keep person warm and quiet. Apply artificial respiration if
breathing has stopped. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. **Get Medical Help at
once**
Ingestion An unlikely route of entry. However, if ingested, **Get Medical Help at once**
Aspiration into lungs can cause chemical pneumonia. **Induce vomiting ONLY IF
advised by physician.**
**Note to Medical Personnel**
Because of increased risk of disturbances of cardiac rhythm (eliciting cardiac disrhythmias),
Catecholamine drugs (Epinephrine, Adrenaline) should be used only with special caution and only in
situations of emergency life support and only as a last resort.

Special Fire Fighting Procedures
At elevated temperatures, pressurized containers may burst, vent, or rupture. Use equipment or shielding
to protect personnel against bursting, rupturing, or venting containers. Cooling with water streams may be
helpful.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards
Concentrated vapors can be ignited by high-intensity ignition source. Due to thermal decomposition
products, firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with full facepiece operated
in positive pressure mode.
Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid)
Strong oxidizer, strong caustic or acid, reactive metals such as sodium, potassium, zinc, magnesium.
Hazardous Decomposition Products
Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, halogens, halogen acids, hydrofluoric acid, and small quantities of
carbonyl halides, such as phosgene, would be expected.
Will Hazardous Polymerization Occur? No
Conditions to Avoid for Polymerization N/A
Is the Product Stable? Yes
Conditions to Avoid for Stability
Avoid contact with open flame, electric arcs, or other hot surfaces that can cause thermal decomposition.
Avoid temperatures high enough to burst container (see special fire fighting procedure above) and
spraying into flame or onto red-hot surfaces, which may cause decomposition.
Section 6 - Spill or Leak Procedures
Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled
Ventilate area to reduce concentration of the components below their exposure limits. Remove sources of
ignition. Use protective equipment consistent with the situation. Pick up the spill on absorbent material;
store in closed containers for proper disposal. Remove residue to prevent a slippery condition
developing.
Waste Disposal Methods
Consult Federal, State and Local regulations. When empty (zero pressure), open valve fully and break off
plastic T-handle to keep valve from being closed. Since residue remains when tank is empty, leave label
on. Dispose of tank according to local regulations. Where possible, please recycle.
Section 7 - Exposure Control Information
Ventilation
General or local exhaust or mechanical or special ventilation to maintain below exposure limits.
Respiratory Protection
Generally not required if sufficient ventilation is provided. If the exposure limits of the product or any of its
components are exceeded, an approved organic vapor mask should be used (consult your safety
equipment supplier).

Protective Gloves
Where prolonged or repeated contact with the spray mist or the deposited product is likely, the use of
impervious gloves (for example neoprene) is indicated.
Other Protective Equipment
If contact with the spray is likely, eye protection is recommended. Chemical Monogoggles or safety
glasses with side shields and a face shield will provide protection in most situations.
Other Engineering Controls To determine exposure levels, monitoring should be performed
Work Practices
Do not use in confined or closed space. Ventilation should maintain the concentration of the product or its
components below their exposure limits. We consider it good practice to maintain exposure to the mist
from any mold release below the OSHA Oil Mist exposure limit of 5 mg/m3 TWA.
Hygienic Practices Wash thoroughly before eating or smoking after using this or any chemical product.
Section 8 - Special Precautions
Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storage
Store in cool, dry area out of direct sunlight. Do not puncture, burn, or store above 120掳 F.
Maintenance Precautions Do not remove or deface label.
Other Precautions
Read and follow directions and cautions on the container label, and any accompanying literature.
Additional Comments
Accumulated overspray could make floors slippery. Use necessary housekeeping and work rules to
prevent slipping.
CAUTION Intentional misuse of this chemical product, as with any industrial chemical, in
contact with the body can be harmful or fatal. This includes such things as deliberately
breathing, placing in mouth, swallowing, placing on skin, or any other body contact, or repeated,
or continuous contact.
